THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS

WELCOME

A warm welcome to our G4 Claims Glasgow Stakes Racenight – one of our richest racing nights of the year with a card worth nearly £125,000, featuring our highest-grade race of the year, the Class 1 British EBF 40th Anniversary Glasgow Listed Stakes.

A big thank you to our title sponsors this evening, Wishaw-based G4 Claims Ltd, who are one of Scotland’s leading ‘Not at Fault’ claims companies. Your sponsorship is very much appreciated and enables us to enrich the prize money on offer tonight. We would also like to thank the European Breeders Fund who support our race programme so much all year including tonight’s Glasgow Stakes. I am also delighted to welcome three new sponsors this evening – McGarry Flooring & Upholstery Contracts, Digital Footprints and 525 Accountancy Service I hope you and all your guests have a great time here with us tonight.

We have a strong field of runners for the G4 Claims Not At Fault Claims Made Easy Scottish Stewards’ Cup, which is a fast and furious handicap over 6f at 7.05pm. The race reflects the famous Stewards’ Cup which is run each year during the Glorious Goodwood Festival and the winner of our Scottish version often goes on to run well in the Goodwood race Five of this evening’s runners hold early entries for the Stewards’ Cup at Goodwood and they will be hoping to emulate Commanche Falls who won the Scottish Stewards’ Cup in 2021 before taking the honours at Goodwood in both 2021 and 2022. Tim Easterby’s Hyperfocus is the highest rated horse in the race but former course and distance winners Jump The Gun and Illusionist will certainly be looking to feature for Iain Jardine and Grant Tuer respectively.

This year’s running of the Glasgow Listed Stakes is at 7.40pm and is by some way the richest flat race staged in Britain today We have a small but very high-quality field for this year’s renewal with four of the five runners rated at 101 or above. Simon & Ed Crisford run Chesspiece in the iconic colours of Godolphin whilst Sir Michael Stoute has entered Circle of Fire for HM The King and HM The Queen. Johnston Racing have an excellent record in this race having won on six previous occasions. Joe Fanning has ridden four of those winners and will be hoping for a good run from Crackovia. Ralph Beckett also has winning form in this race and will be hoping top-rated Salt Bay can contest the honours this evening, whilst Andrew Baldings’ Sea of Roses completes the line up with Hayley Turner taking the ride on a rare visit to Hamilton Park. Once the fantastic racing action has finished, we’ll be celebrating the music of two of Scottland’s greatest music artists with the incredible Simple Minded and Deacon Blue’s tribute bands who will take to the stage after the last race, so do stay on and enjoy the show until bars close at 10.45pm. We have a couple of weeks without racing before we open our gates for our ever-popular Boë Ladies’ Night on Saturday 5 August. Demand for tickets is at an all-time high, so do head to www.hamilton-park.co.uk to secure your tickets for our biggest night of the year!

Have a wonderful evening and I hope you back a winner or two!

Kind regards,

ASHLEY MOON, RACECOURSE MANAGING DIRECTOR

EBF RESTRICTED MAIDEN STAKES (CLASS 4) (FOR HORSES IN BANDS A, B, C AND D)(EBF QUALIFIER) (GBB RACE)

RACE DESCRIPTION

This race is a six furlongs maiden stakes for two-year-olds. Maiden races provide a starting point for young horses that are yet to record a victory and most will be very lightly-raced or be making their racecourse debuts. Previous experience can count for a lot when searching for the winner but well-bred or precocious juveniles are more than capable of landing the prize at the first time of asking.

RACE STATISTICS

Leading course trainer (17-22):

R Fahey (36 wins from 213 runners, 17%) runs GAMRAAN

Trainer-in-form (last 14 days):

K R Burke (13 wins from 51 runners, 25%) runs MEDIA SHOOTER

Longest Traveller: GAMRAAN trained by R Fahey & BALLYMOUNT BOY trained by A P Keatley, both Malton, 203 miles.

BETTING FORECAST: 5-2 Ballymount Boy (IRE),

3-1 Gamraan (GB), 7-2 Jonny Concrete (IRE),

11-2 Media Shooter (GB), 15-2 Union Island (IRE)

RACE SUMMARY: JONNY CONCRETE split a pair of subsequent winners when just failing to make a successful debut over C&D last month so gets the vote Greenness prevented Ballymount Boy from scoring first-time up at Newcastle so he’s the obvious threat.

WISHAW NURSERY HANDICAP STAKES (CLASS 5)

RACE DESCRIPTION

A nursery is a handicap that is restricted to two-year-olds only In order to be allowed to take part, entrants must have already run in three maiden or novice races, or have won two races, which then qualifies them for an official handicap rating based on what they have achieved so far. Quite simply, the higher their rating, the bigger the weight they have to carry. This particular six furlongs race is for horses which have been rated from 0 to 70.

RACE STATISTICS

Leading course trainer (17-22):

BETTING FORECAST: 6-4 Beyond Borders (IRE), 11-4 Up The Jazz (IRE), 3-1 Swift Salian (IRE), 7-1 DC Flyer (GB)

RACE SUMMARY: BEYOND BORDERS was only workmanlike when off the mark at the second attempt in a Thirsk novice 16 days ago but he represents a yard that do particularly well with their juveniles, and it would come as no surprise to see him improve more now handicapping. Up The Jazz is feared most over Swift Salian.

7.05pm

THE G4 CLAIMS NOT AT FAULT CLAIMS MADE EASY SCOTTISH STEWARDS’ CUP HANDICAP STAKES (CLASS 2)

RACE DESCRIPTION

This is a six furlongs handicap race for three-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 81 to 100. In a handicap the weight that each of the runners carries is determined by their official handicap rating which is based on their level of form shown so far. The aim is to ensure competitive racing by asking the higher rated horses to carry more weight than a lower rated rival. As a guide, horses rated 40 tend to be at the lower end of the scale whilst the very best performers would be rated as high as 130.

RACE STATISTICS

Leading course trainer (17-22):

R Fahey (36 wins from 213 runners, 17%) runs KHUNAN

RACE SUMMARY: The way ROCK MELODY finished off for third in a big field at Ayr on Monday suggests she still has some mileage in her mark and she can resume winning ways Khunan took a big step back in the right direction at Haydock recently and is second choice ahead of the thriving Paws For Thought and Illusionist, who was close up in fourth in behind the selection at Ayr on Monday

THE BRITISH EBF 40TH ANNIVERSARY GLASGOW STAKES (CLASS 1)(LISTED RACE)

RACE DESCRIPTION

This one mile and three furlongs contest for three-year-olds is a Listed race; a race that can only be bettered by a Group 1, 2 or 3 race Many of the runners in this race will have already shown themselves to be talented and this race provides a perfect medium for them to be tested against a better class of rival before making the jump into a Group race. Initially, the weights are set at 9st 7lb for colts and geldings and 9st 2lb for fillies before penalties are awarded to horses that have previously won above a certain level – 3lb for a Listed race victory or 5lb for a Group 3 success.

RACE STATISTICS

Leading course trainer (17-22):

S & E Crisford (2 wins from 5 runners, 40%) runs CHESSPIECE Trainer-in-form (last 14 days): R Beckett (9 wins from 40 runners, 22%) runs SALT BAY Longest Traveller: SALT BAY trained by R Beckett, Kimpton Down, 400 miles.

BETTING FORECAST: 7-4 Chesspiece (GB), 5-2 Salt Bay (GER), 4-1 Circle of Fire (GB), 11-2 Sea of Roses (GB), 28-1 Crackovia (GB)

RACE SUMMARY: The Crisfords saddled the winner of this in 2022 and can repeat the dose with CHESSPIECE, who was acquired by Godolphin after winning a York handicap and his subsequent third to a potential star future stayer at Royal Ascot was no backward step Salt Bay is greatly respected on account of his 2-y-o promise and will be a big threat if putting his disappointing Newmarket reappearance behind him. Circle of Fire wasn’t far behind Chesspiece at Royal Ascot and has claims, along with Sea of Roses

1-2-3: 1.CHESSPIECE 2.SALT BAY (GER) 3.CIRCLE OF FIRE

RACE DESCRIPTION

This is a five furlongs handicap race for three-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 61 to 80. To qualify for a handicap rating horses must have run at least three times in a Flat race in Britain, or have run in no more than two Flat races run in Britain and won at least one of them.

THE 525 ACCOUNTANCY SERVICES, LEADING ACCOUNTANCY FIRM HANDICAP STAKES (CLASS 6)

RACE DESCRIPTION

This is a one mile and five furlongs handicap race for threeyear-olds and upwards which have been rated from 46 to 55. Once a horse has qualified for a handicap rating this is regularly reassessed. A below-par effort could result in a reduced rating whilst a strong performance could see the rating increased. Occasionally, horses are entered to race before their handicap rating has been reviewed and so to avoid recent winners being un-penalised they are allotted a mandatory penalty – usually 6lb

RACE STATISTICS

Leading course trainer (17-22):

J Goldie (35 wins from 325 runners, 11%) runs PAMMI and TAFSIR and THE DARIEN SCHEME

RACE SUMMARY: BLUE ANTARES clearly isn’t going to live up to his pedigree (half-brother to King’s Stand/Diamond Jubilee winner Blue Point) but he comes here having run his best race yet sporting a first-time visor when second at Ripon (12f) 11 days ago and he could be worth siding with to build on that now. Tafsir, a comfortable winner at Musselburgh, is a big threat, along with A Day To Dream.
